Sure, it's good for you — but which loaves lead the flavor pack? We asked a panel of volunteers to taste 13 nationally available brands to find the superior slices.

For a healthy dose of whole grain, choose Nature's Own Premium Specialty 12 Grain; there's a whopping 21 grams of it in each slice. Volunteers loved that they could "taste the grains" in this hearty contender. Despite a "healthy feel and taste," this bread was also "fluffy" with a "sweet" nuttiness, which tasters enjoyed. "I'd eat it for breakfast and lunch," wrote one taster.

With its molasses-sweetened, subtle wheat flavor, this "moist and delicious" bread is perfect for those who usually prefer white bread. Although its texture is "fluffy" and "squishy," it's also "sturdy" enough for a hearty sandwich.
